Bsnl 2 - 8 Download While Asleep

Step 1 :

Download and install this third party application called auto powerup and shutdown to start/shutdown/schedule your comp from here.

Step 2 :

Configure this application to start your comp at 2:10 a.m , let it start the download manager/torrent client/ftp client from where you have to download the file at around 2:15 a.m
Then configure the download manager/torrent client to start downloading as soon as the application is started.
Finally stop the client from downloading at 7:30 and schedule a shut down at 7:35(Or get up from your bed and shut down comp and turn off modem)
the configuration is done...
Now for the working..

Step 3:

i)Basically you have to turn on your comp the night before you want to download and ii)add links to your download client....
iii)Then start auto power and shut down...
iv)Then put your comp into hibernate mode using auto power shut down...
v)After the comp has gone into hibernation mode, turn on the modem...you should only see ONLY ONE orange led....

Step 4:

Sleep!!!

Step 5 : Wake up turn off modem and comp and rush to work/college

Step 6: Come back and enjoy download!!!


Wasnt that easy

Now for the working :

When you put the comp in hibernation with auto power shut down working , it starts the comp at the set time...
The modem goes into , what I call as a sleep mode when only one led is orange...Bsnl starts recording a download only when both are orange...When modem is not used for a long time modem goes into this mode...When the download client is started the modem becomes active and this time is logged...download starts....download is stopped by 7:30 and comp is turned off...modem goes into "sleep" mode after some time...this is before 8:00 so download is not counted...

Create a PC Shutdown Timer

METHOD 1

Do you know that you can make your PC shutdown at a time u wish to?
Here is the trick!!
How To Make A Shutdown Timer!

Step 1:

Right click on your desktop and choose "New=>shortcuts".

Step 2:

In the box that says "Type the location of the shortcut",
type in "shutdown -s -t 3600" without the quotation marks and click next.

Note: 3600 are the amount of seconds before your computer shuts down. So , 60secs*60mins=3600secs.

Step 3:

Make up a name for the shortcut and you're done.
You can change the icon by right clicking=>properities=>change icon=>browse.

To abort:

To make an abort key to stop the shutdown timer just create another shortcut and make
the "location of the shortcut" to " shutdown -a" without the quotes.


METHOD 2

Here is another trick to shutdown at a specific time, for example you wish to shutdown at 11:35am. Type this in
start=>Run

Type Code: at 11:35 shutdown -s


to abort

Code:

shutdown -a


take note: all time are in 24hr, example u would like to shutdown at 8:30pm, you should type

"at 20:30 shutdown -s" without quote


METHOD 3

you can use a batch for that as well it makes it easier to use
just run the batch and enter the time you want it to shutdown

shutdown.bat
Type Code:
@echo off
title Scheduled Shutdown Batch Example by chacha1234
color A
echo Enter Time To Shutdown (example 19:30)
set /p stime=
cls
at %stime% ""shutdown -s -t 00"" >nul
echo Your PC Will Auto Shutdown At %stime%
echo Press Any Key To Exit
pause >nul
exit



also you can add -c "desired message" at the end of the shutdown command
for example
shutdown -s -t 60 -c "Shutdown Pc"


using this command u can also schedule ur pc to restart
for example
shutdown -r -t 60 -c "Restarting Pc"
